Stellar Mercenaries, the Vertical-Scrolling Space Shooter, Drops a New Jupiter Expansion

Prepare for liftoff! Stellar Mercenaries has just received a massive upgrade with the Jupiter Expansion, nearly doubling the game's content. Get ready for more worlds, enemies, and missions than ever before!

If you haven't already blasted off into the action, Stellar Mercenaries is a thrilling vertical-scrolling space shooter. Engage in procedurally generated missions, customize your ships and weapons, and rise to become the solar system's most feared mercenary.

What's New in the Jupiter Expansion?

The Jupiter Expansion throws you headfirst into the swirling chaos of Jupiter and its moons—Ganymede, Io, and Europa—each presenting unique challenges. Brave the barren wasteland of Ganymede, navigate the volcanic fury of Io, and endure the treacherous frozen landscapes of Europa. And don't forget Jupiter itself, with its iconic, unpredictable storms!

Two new factions join the fray: the formidable Jovian Empire, a powerful military force aiming to control the region, and the chaotic Pirate Council, a dangerous alliance of outlaws.

Fifty brand-new missions await, each with fresh objectives. Engage in thrilling hyperspace hunts, undertake daring piracy missions, provide crucial escort services, and even defend vital training facilities.

Six magnificent new ships—the Raider, Goblin, Mako, Boxer, Lightning, and Skybreaker—join your arsenal, alongside a powerful array of new weapons: the Hyper Velocity Mortar, Plasma Seeker, EMP Rockets, Mauler Cannon, Electron Beam, and Neutron Beam.

New Hazards, Shields, and More!

The update introduces Tier 4 shields and armor, alongside perilous new hazards: treacherous asteroid fields, elite enemy squadrons, and the formidable Pacifier. Even the enemy mercenaries have leveled up, with the introduction of Nightmare, Riot, and Warhawk classes.

Finally, fourteen new music tracks and a new side missions system add even more depth to the Stellar Mercenaries experience. Prepare for liftoff – download the game on the Google Play Store and dive into the action!
